How 2 October Gandhi Jayanti is celebrated: -

In India, What is the reason for celebrating Gandhi Jayanti as a national festival? When we consider it. So we get the answer very easily. That is, Mahatma Gandhi was such a great man of our country, who put his full benevolence  in charity. He was such a divine figure who provided the weapon of truth and non-violence to break the shackles of subordination. Wrote the immense power and influence of the British Empire with this immovable weapon, wrote a new chapter in world history. The whole world accepted this wonderful weapon of his pleasure. World made him not only a miraculous man, but an avatar. He is seen and experienced with great respect as a great man.

It can be accepted with a very simple sense that the great need and utility of Mahatma Gandhi during the struggle for independence was not less in today's era. In this context, it would be appropriate to say that if Mahatma Gandhi had been there today, he would have given the aim and the age-old truth and non-violence to any other astounding weapon. On this basis, we can say that even today Mahatma Gandhi's relevance remains. The same will not remain in the future. This is because even today, there are some problems, national and international, which cannot be solved by weapons, but only by some expected weapons like truth and non-violence.

About Mohandas Gandhi(Mahatma Gandhi):

Gandhi Jayanti

Mahatma(Mohandas karamchand) Gandhi was born in a small coastal town, Porbandar, Gujarat. He did all the great things through his life which still have an impact on people in this modern era. She has worked with efforts to achieve Swaraj, removing untouchability customs from society, eradicating other social evils, empowering women's rights, developing the economic status of farmers and many more. He launched three movements in the Non-Cooperation Movement in 1920, the Dandi March or Salt Satyagraha in 1930 and the Quit India Movement in 1942 to help the people of India gain independence from British rule. His Quit India movement was a call of the British to leave India.

Civil disobedience was one of the reasons that led to India's independence. Civil disobedience is the true meaning of a decline in civil law, especially as a disagreement for certain demands. Mahatma Gandhi used civil disobedience as a non-violent way to protest against British rule. He initiated several harsh defiance movements during British rule and opposed many harsh acts and policies of the British government. 

Through the Champaran Satyagraha of 1916, Mahatma Gandhi opposed the tax (rent) imposed on the peasants by the British during the subversive scattering with peasants and servants. In 1916, Mahatma Gandhi was imprisoned in Champaran district of Bihar, India for organizing civil protection of thousands of landless peasants and servants With his determination, Gandhi jolted the British in 1930 with 440 km of hiking in the sea. It was originally meant to fight the British salt monopoly and lead the Indians to disregard the British forced salt tax. The Dandi Salt March has been kept in history, where about 60,000 people have imprisoned the result of the protest march.

However, the story of India and the extent of India's struggle for freedom were very long and many people sacrificed their lives during this process. Eventually, India achieved independence in August 1947. But with independence, there was a terrible division. After the independence of India in 1947, after partition and religious violence on the liberation of India and Pakistan, Gandhi began numerous fasts to end religious violence. Bapu was killed on January 30, 1948 (Mahatma Gandhi's death date) after being shot by Nathuram Godse at Birla House in New Delhi.

What did Mahatma Gandhi try to do with his activism?

Initially,  Mahatma Gandhi's campaigns sought to counter the second-tier Indians gained by British rule. Eventually, however, he turned his attention solely to advancing British rule, a goal that was achieved in the years directly following World War II. This victory came from the fact that the communal violence within India between Hindus and Muslims necessitated the creation of two independent states — India and Pakistan — as opposed to a unified India.

What were Mahatma Gandhi’s religious beliefs?

Mahatma Gandhi's family practiced Vaishnavism, one of the predominant traditions within Hinduism, divided through morally rigid principles of Jainism - an Indian belief for which concepts such as austerity and non-violence are important. Later in life, many beliefs that characterized Gandhi's spiritual outlook arose in his upbringing. However, his understanding of faith was constantly evolving as he faced new belief systems. Leo Tolstoy's analysis of Christian theology, for instance, overshadowed Gandhi's concept of spirituality, as in texts such as the Bible and the Qur'an, and he first read the Bhagavad-Gita - a Hindu epic - that lived in Britain Hué was in his English translation. .

What other social movements inspired Mahatma Gandhi's activism?

Within India, Mahatma Gandhi's philosophies were based on the messages of reformers like philanthropist Vinoba Bhave. Activists such as Abroad, Martin Luther King, Jr. borrowed heavily from Gandhi's practice of non-violence and civil disobedience to achieve their own goals of social equality. Perhaps most effectively, the independence that Gandhi's movement achieved for India sounded the death knell for Britain's other colonial enterprises in Asia and Africa. The freedom movement swept away like wildfire with Gandhi's influence promoting existing movements and igniting new ones.

How was Mahatma Gandhi's personal life?

Mahatma Gandhi's father was a local government official working under the British Raj, and his mother was a religious devotee who - like the rest of the family - prevailed in the Vaishnavist tradition of Hinduism. Gandhi married his wife, Kasturba, when she was 13, and together they had five children. His family lived in India, while Gandhi went to London in 1888 to study law and in 1893 to South Africa to practice it. He brought her to South Africa in 1897, where Kasturba assisted her in her activism, which she continued to do after the family moved back to India in 1915.

What were the contemporary thoughts of Mahatma Gandhi?

Appreciating Mahatma Gandhi as a figure, his actions and beliefs did not escape criticism from his contemporaries. Liberal politicians thought he was proposing a change too quickly, while young radicals scold him for not offering enough. Muslim leaders suspected their lack of harmony when dealing with Muslims and their own Hindu religious community and Dalits (formerly called untouchables) and thought of their apparent intention to end the caste system. He also cut a controversial figure outside India, though for various reasons. The colonists of India, as English, expressed some resentment towards them, as they had defeated one of the first dominoes in their global imperial rule.
